Job Title

Senior Accountant (Public Accounting Firm) | Kitchener, Ontario *2 years experience minimum is required in a Canada based Public Accounting Firm* You know that feeling when a firm says they want good people, but what they really mean is cheap people who wont complain. This isnt that. Ive just spent time with one of the Partners at this firm in Kitchener and the tone was refreshingly straightforward. Theyre not chasing growth for the sake of it. They hire for long term. People stay here. That alone says a lot. This is a full service small to medium size public accounting firm Big enough to have proper clients and structure. Small enough that youre not a line on a spreadsheet. The work is broad. Youll take jobs from start to finish across compilations, reviews, tax compliance, and advisory work for owner managed businesses. If you enjoy variety and actually understanding your clients, youll feel at home. Theres no heavy siloing here. Youre trusted to own your work, speak to clients, and see things through properly. Its public accounting the way a lot of people hoped it would be when they first got into it. A few things worth knowing up front: They pay overtime. Properly. Theres also a bonus approach tied to that. The firm shuts down for a full week over Christmas and New Year. In Summer, Fridays finish at noon. Not earth shattering perks. Just signs of a firm that treats people well and care. Theyre based in Kitchener and value being in the office. How that looks in practice is a conversation, not a policy document. Best discussed directly with them rather than guessed at in an advert. Theyre keen to meet good people. And they dont see hiring as a short term fix. If youre good at what you do, reasonably normal to work with, and want a public accounting role where youre not constantly watching your back, this is worth a look.
